Emperor Tetra

Why the Emperor tetra is one of my favorite fish, I wish I could shoot a video as well as these people to share mine with you.

I really enjoy watching the fish videos you post Steeler. Emperor tetra have been a favorite of mine for a while, they are quite lovely.

When I go fishing I just throw sharp rocks in the water and wait for the dead fish to float to the top... KingfisherEverything happens for a reason. Sometimes that reason is you are stupid and make bad decisions. I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.

Thanks, Mommy1, I enjoy showing people that there is more to our hobby than, guppies and neons.

nice video. i recently got 3 emperor tetras from the pet store. i would have got more but there was only 3. I had them in the tank for a few days and seen that 1 of them looks beautiful and the other 2 have ripped fins. i read that they will fight but didn't think they would destroy eachothers fins. no other fish in the tank have ripped fins. The 2 also have less bright coloring on them. the tank has swordtails, white skirts, and emperor tetras in it.

Your problem may be the White skirts, they have a reputation as fin nippers.
